If this is an indication of how Telecom intends to tackle the Australian roaming issue, then the theories about Telecom launching a UMTS network in New Zealand may have to go back on the shelf for a while.
3g: I'll be impressed if they get the roaming part right - my father-in-law has been away on a trip around Asia and Telecom managed to totally screw up his roaming (which had to involve a loan phone from the UK for certain parts of Asia).
Supposedly he'll be getting a large credit when he gets back, but that doesn't help him stay in business.
Of course last time they screwed it up as well - and when I contacted them on his behalf, nobody could tell me how to phone the roaming team from outside of New Zealand! I was on hold for about 15 minutes and the best they could come up with was to give me the direct dial number for their team leader - I definitely had to laugh at that one.

c71931f: Hi,
my mate showed me today that his Nokia 027 phone can have a vodafone simcard in it and it can either be used on the 027 numba or the 021 numba depending on what u want to use at the time and it has a little compartment behind the battery that pops open when he has the battery out and it has a lil spot for a simcard

I guess the next question is when Telecom makes this device available, will they continue to use 02 as their roaming partner, and there for you will still have a different number while roaming, or will we see the introduction of RUIM's here, and in doing so allow Telecom customers to maintain their mobile number while roaming on a GSM network?
